The campaign:
On Oct. 14, 2016 USA Today/Des Moines Register ran a video piece by Kyle Munson with a brief mock ad report about a Presidential ticket consisting of two canines from Des Moine, Iowa. Their names were Titus and Trinity.
Titus was an 8 year old male yellow Lab, Trinity a 1 year old Maltese-Pomeranian hybrid. The idea started with yard signs made as a prank by LaVal Anderson's mother, Maxine, who had them placed on the lawn of her daughter.
Being residents of the same state, as well as being non-human, would have posed some Constitutional hurdles in the event of a Titus/Trinity victory.
Election history: none
Other occupations: dog
Notes:
Trinity's gender was not revealed in the news coverage.
